Is paricutin explosive or non explosive?

Paricutin is an explosive volcano. It is classified as a scoria cone volcano, which is a type of volcanic cone that is formed by explosive eruptions. Paricutin's eruptions were characterized by the ejection of molten rock fragments, ash, and gases, leading to the formation of a cone-shaped structure. The explosive nature of Paricutin's eruptions is attributed to the high gas content and viscosity of the magma beneath the volcano.
